Unfortunately I don’t have access to stage manager since I own an iPad Air 4th Gen, and it’s only available on the later models the 5th gen and the pros. Would love the feature for when I do productivity so I can keep track of things and on top of that be more efficient.
I can't think of a TH-camr who knows the iPad and iPadOS as well as Christopher Lawley. iPadOS software engineers would be very wise to listen to his ideas and suggestions, because there aren't too many people on this planet who have mastered the iPad like Chris has!
as someone who is planning on moving from a chromebook to an ipad as my main computer this was the most comprehensive sm run through ive seen and ive seen a lot 😭 tysm!!!
@@christianl3592I'm too used to having a touchscreen! Also as a medical intern/resident my computer needs won't change for at least the next 5 years. (Doctors are very underpayed in my country so I would rather not spend extra money on both a computer and an ipad when i know I realistically only need one)
@@christianl3592 as someone in the same boat, the lack of touchscreen is a dealbreaker for me as I am constantly annotating documents and I like doing it by hand
I think they’re moving in the right direction with these changes..however, one thing I wish they would add is to be able to drag a window to the edge and have it snap to half the screen, or in the corners rather than having to manually adjust the window size every time
@@fkcombustion You can snap to left or right by holding down Command, right clicking on the green button and selecting the snapping on the drop-down menu, but it’d be nice to at least have a toggle for automatic window snapping for most people who prefer that. I’m not someone who actually liked that being a thing when I was on Windows whenever I want my windows a certain size or shape on either side, so I actually prefer the way Mac OS does it, but I’m a rare exception rather than the norm.
2nd. I also don't love Stage Manager on the iPad because every time I open a new app it opens a new stage. I wish it would just load the app into the current stage. It feels just a few steps short of greatness. That said it's AMAZING for using external monitors with my iPad Pro M1. Edit: just got to the part where you talked about the wish for the setting to allow you to do this -- YES!
This is my biggest issue with it as a new iPad user. Because I'll open apps one at a time and each of their windows end up in their own stage. Then I'll close all the windows in a Stage I'm in and it will take me to another stage of some random app I opened by itself an hour ago. I just want to go back to the home screen when I close all the windows in a stage.
As someone who owns a Windows desktop PC and needs a portable machine, I really want the iPad to be my main machine. This video was exactly what I needed to help convince me that the iPad can do everything for me. My Windows desktop PC is mainly used forbig 4K gaming that only and Nvidia GPU can provide. But, my 11 inch iPad Air will be my main computer for everything else and even some lighter games. Thanks so much for this.
Ty! So many reddit pages and TH-cam vids say the iPad is not a "main computer", but here you are showing its full potential. As a home inspector, this fits my needs, since the ipad is portable, light weight, and has the ability to adapt to w/e I need w/o having to own a MacBook, or PC. Keep up the great work; you earned a sub!
Great info Chris! I use my iPad Pro in a sales rep position. Initially I resisted stage manager, that is until I worked a convention. High paced environment where I need to switch between apps quickly and multitask. Switched on stage manager and it greatly improved my efficiency. Haven't turned it off since and that was back in February.
I have stage manager enabled on my iPad Pro 10.5 via jailbreak and I can tell you it runs just fine. There’s absolutely no valid reason older iPads can’t run stage manager (other than Apple’s greed).
Soooo much details! Thank you! One thing to know about iPad vs Mac is that the iPad has more hardware limitations like thermals. iPad also has to include touch functionality where Mac does not. This makes it more challenging to have iPad software mirror Mac software. So, I why some things are different between the two. I am also thrilled when iPad offers the same (or better) functionality as a Mac. At work I use iPad 85% of the time for ease of use, battery life, lighter, and smaller. I am excited to see a 14” iPad hopefully with better thermals. Keep up the absolutely great and useful videos!
I just got a new iPad Pro and I love the idea of Stage Manager, but as someone who has never used it before, it has a steep learning curve. I want to have floating windows like Stage Manager allows but don't want to deal with multiple stages. It's really annoying when I have one app window open in a stage, close it, and it takes me to a random stage I didn't even know I had open because I didn't understand that opening a single app creates a new stage. When I close all windows in a stage, I want to go back to my home screen by default. Just let me customize that.
It’s possible via jailbreak. I’m running stage manager on my iPad Pro 10.5 and I can tell you it works just fine. Apple has no reason to withhold stage manager from older iPads. They are perfectly capable.
I would love to see more of this in iOS 17. Specifically, I would like to see how we can use Microsoft Word and Excel on the iPad, as well as Photoshop and video editing. 😍
Great video! While I'm still very much a Split View + Slide Over iPad user for both technical and personal preference reasons, I do feel that you bring up some valid criticisms for the current implementation of Stage Manager.
It would make a lot of sense if they gave stage manager to the iPad 10 with the 4 Windows-Limit and no option to extend the desktop to a second screen; then kept the Air how it is with 2 Screens a 4 Windows and then gave the iPad Pro support for infinite Windows. That would make both the iPad 10 and the Pro way better while keeping the typical upselling limitations so users have reasons to upgrade to more expensive models.
Dude this channel is exactly what i've been looking for, i have so many apple products and have been using them in such a subpar way. NOT ANYMORE. thanks man
Can you use stage manager to have youtube and safari open at the same time for instance, however in portrait mode with a horizontal cut, so that you have your youtube video on top and the other app in the bottom, both filling out the screen more efficiently?
Appreciate the explanations, thank you! Would be interested if I can use an M1 iPad Pro connected to a monitor trough a hub with mouse, keyboard and usb camera and use Zoom on the monitor and one note on the iPad screen for note taking. I’d very much appreciate if you or someone from the community can try this setup and let me know. Thank you!
the fact that its 4 windows and not apps is crazy...glad someone with your platform said it. even if they gave is 6 apps and 8 windiws total per screen it eould solve a lot of issues. 6 apps per stage and look up and compose or any other eindows like that should really be a non issue. however the best would really be no limit
12:28 Hey, handsome guy! Thanks so much for putting this video out. Had no idea it was so powerful and that there were so many keyboard shortcuts. Gotta admit, it’s going to be a pretty steep learning curve, but I really want to do a better job at giving iPadOS a shot than I have in the past. Been using a 13” that I’ve always felt is too unwieldy, so I ordered an 11”, but after watching this, I think I probably need to get the 13” for more display real estate.
You can remove that keyboard bar. Go to Settings > General > Keyboards. Turn off both 'Shortcuts' and 'Predictive.' Voila, it's gone! No more blocked input fields or send buttons.
Been using my M1 iPad Pro Stage Manager on an External Monitor display now in iOS 17 beta 7 and it made me not to buy a Macbook in the future. My gaming computer is collecting dust cuz this iPad has all the games and apps I need and it’s easy to use even editing videos. Now theres something bugging me, is there a keyboard shortcut or an option to enable this on clicking the 3 dot option above to easily get off Fullscreen apps. Cuz right now after watching a video or this TH-cam video in Fullscreen I have to drag my mouse down the right corner to resize the app and get off the Fullscreen TH-cam app rather than just click the 3 dot above to click a unFullscreen toggle.
Cool video, I can't wait to see what Apple comes out with next month for the iPads to try out these features. Also where can one go to purchase that R2D2 model in your video background?
Stage manager is cluttered, confusing, and redundant. The pre existing multitasking is SO much better. Having full screen apps with either Slide Over or Split screen options is more than enough in my opinion, and is both less confusing and more intuitive than Stage Manager.
Totally agree, stage manager feels a step back to an old way of doing computing: the OS becomes again a layer of friction between you and the apps you wanna use. Fortunately we can just leave it off and enjoy a modern and transparent OS.
So happy that I switched from iPad Pro 12.9 M1 to MacBook Air 15". Such a great laptop that you could actually use for work! I was trying to adapt the iPad for the last year and a half and tried to love it and watch every possible iPad video that suggests that it's amazing and close to laptop replacement but happy that I trow it away and now use my M2 MacBook Air.
As per your recommendation for GLOBE key, I selected my hardware keyboard and selected the one I am using, but the modifier key menu doesn’t show up? Is my keyboard too old? I am using the Satechi extended bluetooth keyboard.
Thanks for this video on Stage Manager. I have loved Stage Manager since it was released in iPadOS 16. You have showed me how to turn on the high resolution display mode for more display space - thanks. My 13 inch iPad Pro M1 is my primary computing platform these days now with stage manager.
How short and wide can the Nebo app window be set simultaneously? I prefer handwriting as an input method and, currently on iPadOS 16, Nebo’s window height is too tall when expanded to its widest. Thank you.
I am seriously considering that if side loading/3rd party stores and significant usability improvements aren’t made to the multitask(like the 4 window limit) my next tablet is not going to be an iPad. I have used iPads since the first one came out and now it is just getting frustrating dealing with the Apple imposed limitations. The Pro devices have no business being call pro with these limitations. Shoot let me install macOS and I’d be happier at this point. I love the form factor but they are really hurting the platform.
I do not see Stage Manager on iPad Mini 6th generation control settings. I have iPadOS 17.4.1. Is it only for M1 and above iPads? Any rumors from m-series iPad mini?
Hey Chris. Found out ya channels by chance and cant believe there are heaps of info on the use of iPad pro! I just got my iPadpro 12" a couple weeks ago and am trying to make it my main device at home. I am just wondering if u have suggestions on external keyboard. I have the Logitech MX master 3 and am actually looking for an keyboard to use on the ipad. Apart from the magic keyboard for iPad Pro, have u used other brands and would recommend it? Currently im looking at the NuPhy air75 v2.
@@ChrisLawleyyou previously said you probably will not stay with Fantastical due to the rise of subscription pricing, so I thought you have finally made it)
I forgot to cancel it and it auto renewed. It’s still the best calendar app on the iPad and iPhone. I just don’t use a calendar that much right now. I’ll probably play with the other calendar apps after the beta season is over.
When ipados17 came out to all users a few days ago, I was able to finally fit four screens in a stage in stage manager without overlapping like you did in the video (I don’t have the side or dock view) but now that they released the 17.0.2 update, it’s back to normal where the 4 apps in a stage overlap each other. Any idea what happened? Does your iPad overlap now too?
I’m with you on getting rid of the typing bar… until I come to needing autocomplete (name, phone number, email, credit card etc). Is there a way of doing that without the typing bar?
I got it off toggling off Shortcuts, Predictive and Slide on Floating Keyboard to Type, you can find them in General -> Keyboards, now it only appears when I’m using autocomplete
I’d like to switch back to the iPad as my main computer. I recently sold my M1 iPP for an M2 MacBook Air. If I ever give up my game development hobby, I think I’d switch back immediately. Photography being my other hobby, I much prefer editing photos on the iPad instead of the Mac. I feel like I have some pretty nice photos and would love to sell them at some point. Is there any ways you’d recommend going about doing that? I have a shortcut on my iPhone that will randomly choose one of my photos for a wallpaper, it then saves it onto iCloud for the iPad to also run a shortcut ~30 minutes later to grab that same file. It’s nice having matching wallpapers on the devices. Unfortunately, I can’t find a way to automate this on the Mac. I always get nice comments on my photos, would love to get them out to the world somehow - that’s not just instagram.
Great video and info. I learned quite a few shortcuts. Also, you mentioned that you can have more than 4 stages at a time. How do I set them up/find them? I’ve never been able to operate more than 4.

Not that you can get rid of the typing bar. But minimising it only to have to unminimise it can be a real pain when you’re doing it a lot.
I got it off toggling off Shortcuts, Predictive and Slide on Floating Keyboard to Type, you can find them in General -> Keyboards, now it only appears when I’m using autocomplete
question, i have updated my ipad completely, but i don’t see this feature. do you know what is wrong?
i turned on stage manager, but I can't find it on the pull down area - where could it be? Says green in the control center - but I can't find it
I’d like to switch back to the iPad as my main computer. I recently sold my M1 iPP for an M2 MacBook Air. If I ever give up my game development hobby, I think I’d switch back immediately.
Photography being my other hobby, I much prefer editing photos on the iPad instead of the Mac. I feel like I have some pretty nice photos and would love to sell them at some point. Is there any ways you’d recommend going about doing that?
I have a shortcut on my iPhone that will randomly choose one of my photos for a wallpaper, it then saves it onto iCloud for the iPad to also run a shortcut ~30 minutes later to grab that same file. It’s nice having matching wallpapers on the devices. Unfortunately, I can’t find a way to automate this on the Mac. I always get nice comments on my photos, would love to get them out to the world somehow - that’s not just instagram.
I wish apple add this feature to iPhone
How to get the finder app in iPad?

Which IPad those it work for
Great video and info. I learned quite a few shortcuts. Also, you mentioned that you can have more than 4 stages at a time. How do I set them up/find them? I’ve never been able to operate more than 4.
What iPad desk stand is that?
